Cheers to holiday weekends!
Poor Bob he looks really scared
Scaredy Cat

And don't forget the watermelon and the slipe & slide.

I LUUVVV long holiday weekends...and the picture of Bob!
Have a great weekend!

Yes, long weekends are amazing! But isn't it bizarre that the short work weeks end up feeling the longest? Have a great weekend! Loaf-off!

Hi cutie....I'm back!!! I sent you some embarrassing vacation photos (by email, of course!) No photos of a bathing suit-clad me is going to appear on the internets!!

I tried fried okra at a Golden Corral last week!! It was soooo yummy!!! I ate 2 whole plates of it!

Have a wonderful weekend! I'm going to spend it with my family and Ernesto!

Yay for the long weekend!! Mine is extra long - I have 5 full days of loafing ahead of me!!! Enjoy your loafing..

My favorite part about the long holiday weekend? People seem to check out (mentally, if not physically) on Friday, which means a much less stressful day at work for me.

Thanks for another hilarious installment of Pictures of Bob That Make Me Laugh Out Loud.

Rock on, Laurie!
"See" you on Tuesday -- can't wait for ranch dip!

Leaving early the Friday before the weekend is a plus too! (My current company lets us do this. The last place I worked did not...)

Oh the long weekend. We are pretty easily amused, aren't we?

Poor scared Bob.

Have a great Labour Day weekend!

HA! That picture of the Bobster is priceless!

Enjoy your long weekend, Laurie! I will!

Oh, that picture of Bob made me guffaw!! I just scrolled up and guffawed again! You are the master!

Don't worry, Bob! Get your hearing checked!

Oh, so cute!!

Have a great super-weekend, then!

Poor Bob... lol

Love me some Bob-b-cutie! :)
Enjoy your long weekend - i have a houseful of guests coming to keep me busy! Must. go. clean.

If I put Ranch Dip on my cat does that make me weird?

:P

Just checking.

Ahh . . . for us, it's off to the beach, and a town concert/picnic, and a day off for the kids to forget they even started school this week. They'll have to re-start on Tues. Re: Bob--just share something you actually DO grill, and the deer-in-headlights look will instantly disappear.

Mmm..wine and ranch dip....

OMG! Bob looks terrified!
Traffic is very predictable in my area. Southern Maine is a big summer tourist area and this is the last Hoorah of summer. There is no moving on the highway all weekend (sort of like LA on weekdays, I guess) :-)

Not only do I have a long weekend, I have the ENTIRE month of September off! YIPPY!!!! We will be broke, but the kids will be happy. You could use that special surprise and come on up, Laurie!

Bob is Price less!
Have a great weekend - and make sure you're careful with that naked bbq sauce thing ;)

Steaks on a plane!?

That photo reminds me of my nine year old who last year was asked which syrup she preferred: strawberry or boysenberry. She instantly went white as a sheet and exclaimed, "POISONBERRY?" Yes, we were finally going to do away with her and we were going to use pancakes.

MISS STAKES ON A PLANE!!!

That's some funny sheeeyat.

LUUUV that shot of Bob. Does that make him "Bobiliscious"?
=:8

lol

happy labor day to you too! cheers to wine, ranch dip, barbecue and shopping!

also, i'll raise a glass to college football starting this weekend!

Not only is it a long weekend, my daughter has today off of school as well so it is a super long weekend.

Love Bob. Love his face. Absolutely love his name.

Happy long weekend, Laurie!!!! And Bob, too :-)

OMG.. CUTE picture!

Bob is SO CUTE!!! Love the caption. Have a fun weekend.

have a great weekend, Laurie!

Yay Bob! Is he scared of the idea of barbecue=lots of people coming over, and thus lots and LOTS of scary feet in his vicinity?
Or is he scared that the great malificent Sobacawa will beat him out of his share?
I LOVE me some Monday holidays...mostly because it's these little "pocket holidays" that are the only ones us southern girls REALLY get. The other "holidays" are too filled with us girls cooking and doing the dishes (while the menfolk eat and watch football or play with new battery-op toys) for it to be a true "holiday" for us female-type people. In MY humble opinion, women ought to get extra social security credit for every friggin' "non-work day" that we have to cook that damn turkey!!

long holiday weekends - almost as good as snow days!

i love long weekends because i think all weekends should be three days long. 1 day for chores, and 2 days for the loafing.

and one of my goals in life is to only have to work 4 days a week.

soon.

Nekkid and covered in BBQ sauce is really the only way to celebrate Labor Day....

I'm sure that's what The Founders of the Labor Movement had in mind, anyway.

Long weekends, Bob, hor-o-scopes, knitting Q&A... does it get any better? Well, an all-expenses-paid yarn-shopping spree would be nice. What was that, honey? No, I do not have too much yarn already. Which trash can would you like me to throw all these classical CDs into?

Bob-b-que! Made me remember when I was a teenager. We had a Japanese exchange student stay with us for the summer. Her first weekend at our home we had a good ole American Bar-b-que. As I was explaining the whole hamburger, hotdog and katsup thing, a horrified look stole over her face. "Hot DOGS? CAT-sup?" Poor think was afraid we were eating cats and dogs! I'm not sure that she ever really believed my explaination about hot dogs . . .

Love comment with the photo!

Another great photo of Bob!

Laurie, cute cats - I use to have two (they both died awhile ago.). I now get my cat fix from my best friend. She has 3 cats and 2 dogs. I linked over to you from Neil. You've got a great sense of humor. I'll be back for more on you, the cats, and knitting. Oh, by the way - I'm obsessed with weather like you are obsessed with traffic. LOL

Enjoy your weekend Laurie!

My little blue collar heart beats faster just thinking about Labor Day. It ranks right up there with my birthday and Christmas! And, to celebrate I plan to do absolutely NO labor...well except for scooping the litter box as usual. I 'might' get dressed even! Have a super weekend, and please reassure Bob

Oh how I love Bob!

Naked and covered in barbecue sauce would be quite a way to go, now that I think about it... hmmm

No laboring for me on labor day, thank you very much! I loves me the three day weekend.

Bob--Steer clear of the Charbroil. And if he didn't and you had veggies on the grill would that make Bob a "Bob-ka-bob"?

Sorry, couldn't resist! BTW--Did you NOT call a shopping cart a "buggy" in your post? Who are you and what have you done with Laurie? =)

Happy 3 day weekend!!!

I heart you, Bob T. Cat - you gave me such a great laugh!

Have a great weekend, Laurie - and stop scaring Bob! ;) Hope you get to....uh....do some grillin'. Me, I'll be in the library most of the weekend. Well, that* and trying to get my &@^!# new blog site all set up. It'll be spiffy once I'm done. :)

You are definitely making a name for yourself! Q&A with author- I am sure it's no reflection on your knitting skills, she probably reads your blog & know you'd be a great person to interview. Have you ever thought about podcasting? Happy long weekend!

All of a sudden here in Colorado, the weather turned fallish. Love your blog, love the fact that it's almost time for jeans and sweaters, and love Aunt Purl. Thanks so much for being there! FYI, bought some Exclamation today at Target - damn if I didn't think of you AND high school. Disclaimer: chardonnay started at 3 MST.

Ok, I'm de-lurking to say this: Laurie, you crack me up! Have a good one.

I adore Bob.

Another de-lurker here - ok, that pic of Bob is *the* best deer-in-the-headlights look I've ever seen. Anywhere. I've gotta blog a link for all my Due South-loving friends. (You have to be a DS fan to get the joke, although it was a actually a squirrel just before being hit...but trust me, people will howl.) And belated thanks for a good several days of major giggles when I caught up on your blog from the beginning. Priceless!

Have a great holiday weekend and lots of bob-o-que sauce.

No school on Monday!!! Sorry but that is what the weekend means to me. Went out with a group of teachers last night to celebrate the end of the first week of school. We love the kids but we also love the idea of not seeing them for a day.

I also see that I am going to have to buy a lot of BBQ sauce. So that I can bathe nekkid in it. Driving is never a concern as I walk to the bar.

Wow, in all the time i've been reading your blog, I never realized that Bob and my cat Dulce are identical twins seperated at birth! With the same What-I-wasn't-doing-anything-but-I'm-gonna-
poo-in-your-slipper-for-catching-me look.

Hi Bob! So cute! :-)

Shish-kaBob T. Cat? Yikes! Just make sure you have Frankiefurters and Soba noodles garnished with Roy-sauce as side dishes. With wine. Lottttttsssss of wine.

*snerk* Mistakes on a plane!

Gurllllllllllll you crack me up! I luv your kitties, too! I have 3 furboys...never a dull moment!!! Have a great weekend! Cheers from WI!

That's funny. I look just like Bob when the holiday weekend is over.

and a very Happy 96th birthday to Kitty Carlisle!
:-)

Are there any cool Labor Day Yarn Sales you know about?

She said "Bob b cute", which is true. Don't worry - you're not going to be dinner, young man.
